The Citizens, who have be slapped with a two-year ban by Uefa from the lucrative competition for breaching the financial fair play regulations, travel to the Santiago Bernabéu Stadium in the Spanish capital for the first leg of their Round of 16 match.
There has, at least, been some good news for City fans as coach Pep Guardiola has committed his near future to the club, irrespective of the outcome of the appeal. After his team was unceremoniously dumped out of the Copa del Rey at home by Real Sociedad, they bounced back to trounce Osasuna 4-1, but were then held to a 2-2 draw by Celta Vigo at home.The French World Cup winner is also sweating over the availability of Gareth Bale and Luka Jovic. Both were sent home from training midweek with gastroenteritis, and Zidane is concerned that the bug could have infected other players in the squad.
Their progress in the Champions League was down to a hard-fought 2-2 draw against Leipzig. The draw allowed the French club to move to second place in the group – a point ahead of Benfica and Zenit St Petersburg. Former German international Michael Ballack, who played for both clubs, believes Bayern are favourites to advance to the quarterfinals.
